    "factual_background": "FACTS ASSERTED BY THE COMPLAINANT AND NOT CONTESTED BY THE RESPONDENT:\r\n\r\nComplainant is the administrative body for association football in Europe. It is the umbrella organisation for the 55 national football associations across Europe. The Complainant was founded on 15 June 1954 in Basel, Switzerland. The European football union began with 25 members; that number doubled by the early 1990s. Complainant represents the national football associations of Europe, runs national and club competitions including but not limited to the UEFA European Championship, UEFA Nations League, UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League and UEFA Super Cup, and controls the prize money, regulations, and media rights to those competitions. Complainant contends that it has a significant reputation and a vast amount of goodwill in the “UEFA” trade marks in the UK and abroad in relation to European football activities.\r\n\r\nComplainant operates a gaming website on the subdomain https:\/\/gaming.uefa.com\/. This website features interactive games relating to Complaint’s UEFA Champions League. Respondent used URL framing to embed this official UEFA website under the subdomain https:\/\/gaming.uefa.com\/ within Respondent’s own website operated under the disputed domain name. URL framing is similar to URL redirecting, although it differs in the fact the website user is not redirected to another URL but instead the user is presented with another website (or content from another website) in a frame within the entered URL. Respondent used an unencrypted connection for this URL framing, which presents a high risk of malicious activity such as phishing for personal and sensitive data through use of “man-in-middle” attacks when website users enter their login credentials.\r\n\r\nComplainant contends that Respondent is not affiliated with nor authorized by Complainant in any way. Complainant contends that Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the disputed domain name. Complainant does not carry out any activity for, nor has any business with Respondent. Complainant has neither granted a license nor any other authorization to Respondent to make any use of Complainant’s “UEFA” trademarks, or to apply for registration of the disputed domain name.",
